I'm (still...) working on a new test case for testing the NO_HZ_FULL kernel feature available from Linux 3.10. This test code depends on a tool that performs CPU isolation, which is a requirement for the NO_HZ_FULL to work.
It was previously proposed that this tool, rt-tools, would be a git submodule to ltp. That sounded good in the beginning, until I started to think about cross-compile, altering install location, etc. Since rt-tools uses cmake, and ltp uses autotools, there is no automatic inheritance of configuration. It would therefore be easy to miss copying some configuration from configure to the cmake invocation, causing surprises. Since the test case is not intended to be part of default, I suggest the simple solution: Just document in the README file that this test case requires that the rt-tools are built and installed before the test case is run on target, and instructions how to get started with that. Any objections? /Mats ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
